paḌā huuñ zer-e-qadam ḳhāk-e-rahguzar ban kar
jhukā huuñ maiñ hama-tan us galī meñ sar ban kar
nikal gayā mirī āñkhoñ se misl-e-ḳhvā-o-ḳhayāl
guzar gayā dil-e-raushan se vo nazar ban kar
kitāb o ḳhat hī ke dhoke meñ rah ga.e aġhyār
vo yaar aap hī aayā payām-bar ban kar
kisī kī teġh-e-nigah ne miTā diye dhabbe
hamāre dāġh-e-jigar kaT ga.e sipar ban kar
'mazāq' sāqi-e-kausar mujhe sambhāleñge
nashe meñ bigḌī tabī.at mirī agar ban kar
